Steamed Sweet Potatoes with Okra Sauce

Sweet potatoes steam up soft and slightly sweet, which pairs surprisingly well with the earthier, slightly thickened okra sauce spooned over the top.

Using low-sodium vegetable broth in the sauce keeps this dish aligned with a kidney-friendly approach, and dried thyme or parsley adds enough flavor that the seasoning never has to lean on salt. Okra breaks down slightly as it simmers, giving the sauce a natural body without any flour or cream.

Serve the sweet potatoes hot with the sauce ladled generously over the top.
